I had this image of a spider web but it was blah so I was wondering about light refracting different colors. Just something I was playing with. There is a big world out there in creative photography/art possibilities.
Obviously filters were used in the enhancement of this.

Enjoy!
Have a great day!

This really sparks up that ole spider web! Beautifully done with the leading lines towards the bright, focused center. It gives it a tunnel-like feel . Love the rainbow-like effect of the color-very creative! And yes, the possibilities are endless-this is a prime example.

First, you are to be congratulated on acquiring a beautifully focused spider web - those do not come easy. And I think the composition, with the center of the web off-center, is very effective, particularly with the leading lines, which Cindy noted, directing our attention to that point. The vivid color, of course makes the image. I've seen spider webs covered with dew drops which refract light and color, but this takes that concept to a whole new level. As EJ said, "super cool effect." Beautiful, creative work, Kathy.

A very clever combination of nature's design and rainbow colour palette in this inspirational artwork Kathy! A beauty. Love it!

Quite amazing what a little filter addition will render, isn't it?
This is beautiful - love the colours and fades, while still retaining the integrity of the web.
